Ответ:
$1900
Step-by-step explanation:
5% increase is $100 dollar
Ответ:
Let
x= Mayor’s previous salary
y=his increased salary
5% increase means
(105/100)*x=y——-(1)
From the other reporter
The Mayor’s salary went up $2000
:. y-x=2000———-(2)
Put y= (105/100)*x into equation 2
105x/100 -x =2000
Multiply through by 100
105x-100x=200000
5x=200000
Divide both sides by 5
x=40000
Hence his previous salary was $40,000 and current one is
y=2000 +40000
y=$42000
Step-by-step explanation: from your question, you didn’t state whether it went up by 2000 or went to 2000. I chose went by 2000. If it were to be went to 2000 , the equation will be different. It would been 2000-x=y
